Certain exemplary embodiments are described in greater detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the following description, like drawing reference numerals are used for like elements, even in different drawings. The matters defined in the description, such as detailed construction and elements, are provided to assist in a comprehensive understanding of exemplary embodiments. However, exemplary embodiments can be practiced without those specifically defined matters. Also, well-known functions or constructions are not described in detail since they would obscure the application with unnecessary detail.
As illustrated in
The display apparatus 100 may display at least one content. At least one content may be a two-dimensional (2D) content or a three-dimensional (3D) content.
In particular, the display apparatus 100 may display a plurality of contents such as a plurality of 2D contents or 3D contents.
In addition, the display apparatus 100 processes a video sync signal (hereinafter, referred to as a sync signal) and an audio signal and transmits the processed signals to the glasses apparatus 200. Specifically, the display apparatus 100 may be configured to include a sync signal processor (not shown) which processes a sync signal and an audio signal processor (not shown) which processes an audio signal.
The sync signal processor (not shown) may be configured to include a Bluetooth® communication module which receives/transmits a sync signal.
The audio signal processor (not shown) may process a plurality of audio signals which correspond to a plurality of audio signals into a single audio signal and may transmit the processed audio signal to the glasses apparatus 200. The plurality of audio signals may be a different mono audio signal which corresponds to a plurality of different contents or may be L or R signal constituting a stereo audio signal which corresponds to one content. The audio signal processor (not shown) may include ADC and TX IC, which will be explained later in detail.
The glasses apparatus 200 receives a video sync signal and an audio signal from the display apparatus 100.
The glasses apparatus 200 alternately opens left and right shutter glasses according to a received video sync signal and outputs a received audio signal based on the received video sync signal.
Specifically, the glasses apparatus 200 may selectively output one of a plurality of audio signals which are obtained by decrypting a received audio signal or may output alternately a plurality of audio signals.
In the above-exemplary embodiment, a signal processor which processes an audio signal and a sync signal is integrally formed with the display apparatus 100, but this is only an example. As illustrated in
The display apparatus 100 alternately displays a plurality of 2D contents (contents A and B) generates a sync signal which synchronizes glasses apparatuses 1, 2 (200-1, 200-2) with each content and transmits the generated sync signal to the glasses apparatuses 200-1, 200-2.
In this case, the glasses apparatus 1 (200-1) may operate to open both left shutter glasses and right shutter glasses when a content A is displayed in accordance with a sync signal, and close both left shutter glasses and right shutter glasses when another content B is displayed. Accordingly, a viewer 1 wearing the glasses apparatus 1 (200-1) may watch only the content A glasses apparatus 2 (200-2) may watch only the content B.
As illustrated in the drawing, in response to a plurality of 3D contents (contents A and B) being 3D contents, the display apparatus 100 may alternately display a plurality of 3D contents (contents A and B) alternately while displaying a left eye image and a right eye image of each 3D content.
For example, a left eye image and a right eye image (AL, AR) of the 3D content A may be displayed and a left eye image and a right eye image (BL, BR) of the 3D content B may be alternately displayed. In this case, the glasses apparatus 1 (200-1) may open left eye and right eye glasses at a time when a left eye image and a right eye image (AL, AR) of the 3D content A are displayed, and the glasses apparatus 2 (200-2) may open left eye and right eye glasses at a time when a left eye image and a right eye image (BL, BR) of the 3D content B are displayed.
Accordingly, the viewer 1 wearing the glasses apparatus 1 (200-1) may watch only the 3D content A, and the viewer 2 wearing the glasses apparatus 2 (200-2) may watch only the 3D content B.
However, the above description only applies to a shutter glasses method, and in response to a polarized light method being used, the polarization direction of each of a plurality of content images may be configured to be consistent with the polarization direction of the glasses apparatuses 1 and 2, in order to support a multi-view mode, which is obvious to those skilled in the related art.
According to
The display unit 110 alternately displays each of a plurality of contents. Specifically, the display unit 110 may alternately display image frames of each content, at least one at a time.
For example, the display unit 110 may display image frames so that at least one image frame of a first content and one image frame of a second frame, . . . , an image frame of nth content may be alternately displayed.
The audio signal processor 120 may generate a single signal by signal-processing a plurality of audio data. The plurality of audio data may be different mono audio signals which correspond to a plurality of contents or L and R signals which constitute a stereo audio signal which corresponds to a single content.
Specifically, the audio signal processor 120 converts a plurality of audio signals into a single stereo signal through an Intermediate Frequency (IF).
In particular, even though a plurality of audio signals have different sampling rates, the audio signal processor 120 may generate a single stereo signal by performing signal-processing such as audio IF.
For example, a plurality of audio signals may be converted into a single stereo signal through signal-processing such as IIS. Herein, IIS (Integrated Interchip Sound) is a serial bus design for digital audio apparatus and technology, such as DSP, digital TV sound, etc. In IIS design, audio data is processed separately from a clock signal. In response to data being separated from a clock signal, a jitter prevention apparatus is not required since errors involving time which causes jitters do not occur. An IIS bus comprises a circuit for a time-division multiplexing data channel, a circuit for word selection, and a clock circuit. Since the IIS technology is well-known technology to those skilled in the related art, further description will not be provided.
The communicator 130 may transmit a signal which is generated by the audio signal processor 120 to the glasses apparatus 200 through a predetermined frequency band. Herein, the communicator 130 may be configured to include an RF communication module.
The controller 140 controls overall operations of the display apparatus 100. In particular, the controller 140 may control transmission of an audio signal, including a plurality of audio data, to the glasses apparatus 200.
In addition, the controller 140 may control a pairing operation in response to a request from the glasses apparatus 200. Hereinafter, a case where the display apparatus 100 and the glasses apparatus 200 perform a pairing operation according to a Bluetooth communication method will be explained.
Specifically, the glasses apparatus 200 searches the display apparatus 100 within an area in which Bluetooth communication is available by broadcasting an inquiry message in order to perform a pairing operation. In response to an inquiry message being received, the controller 140 controls the communicator 130 to transmit an Extended Inquiry Response (EIR) to the glasses apparatus 200. Herein, the response message may include Bluetooth device address, device name, class of device (COD), clock information, etc.
The glasses apparatus 200 which receive a response message transmits a transmission packet including Bluetooth address, device type, and etc. to the display apparatus 100. If the corresponding transmission packet is received through the communicator 130, the controller 140 may control the communicator 130 to transmit/receive a pin code to/from the glasses apparatus 200 in order to perform a pairing operation with the glasses apparatus 200. Herein, the controller 140 may perform a pairing operation by automatically registering the display apparatus 100 without the user inputting a pin code. However, the exemplary embodiment is not limited thereto, and a user may perform a pairing operation by directly inputting a pin code of the display apparatus 100.
As such, the controller 140 may perform a connection operation by transmitting a response message to an inquiry message once the inquiry message is received from the glasses apparatus 200 so that the communicator 130 may communicate with the glasses apparatus 200. In this case, if an inquiry message is received from the glasses apparatus 200, the controller 140 may control the audio data transmitter 130 to transmit communicator to the glasses apparatus 200.
The plurality of receivers 150-1, 150-2, . . . , 150-n receive different contents from each other. Specifically, each of the plurality of receivers 150-1, 150-2, . . . , 150-n receives contents from a broadcasting station which transmits broadcast program contents via a broadcast network or from a web server which transmits content files via the Internet. In addition, the receivers may receive contents from various recording medium reproduction apparatuses which are formed in the display apparatus 100 or are connected to the display apparatus 100. The recording medium reproduction apparatus refers to an apparatus which reproduces contents stored in various types of recording media, such as CD, DVD, hard disk, Blue-ray Disk™ memory card, USB memory, and so on.
If contents are received from a broadcast station, the plurality of receivers 150-1, 150-2, . . . , 150-n may be configured to include components such as a tuner (not shown), a demodulator (not shown), an equalizer (not shown), and etc. Alternatively, if contents are received from sources such as a web server, the plurality of receivers 150-1, 150-2, . . . , 150-n may be implemented as a network interface card (not shown). In addition, the plurality of receivers 150-1, 150-2, . . . , 150-n do not necessarily receive contents from the same type of source, and the plurality of receivers 150-1, 150-2, . . . , 150-n may receive contents from different types of sources.
The plurality of signal processors 160-1, 160-2, . . . , 160-n may compose image frames by processing each content received from the plurality of receivers 150-1, 150-2, . . . , 150-n.
The sync signal processor 170 may generate a sync signal for synchronizing each content with a corresponding glasses apparatus, in accordance with a display timing of each content and may transmit the generated sync signal to the glasses apparatus 200. Specifically, the sync signal processor 170 may generate a sync signal for synchronizing a glasses apparatus at a time when an image frame regarding each of a plurality of contents is displayed in a multi-view mode, and generates a sync signal for synchronizing a glasses apparatus at a time when a left eye image frame and a right eye image frame of 3D contents are displayed.
In addition, the sync signal processor 170 transmits the generated sync signal to the glasses apparatus 200. In this case, the sync signal processor 170 may be configured to include a Bluetooth communication module and may transmit the sync signal to the glasses apparatus 200 in accordance with a Bluetooth communication method.
In the above exemplary embodiment, the display apparatus 100 and the glasses apparatus 200 communicate according to a Bluetooth communication method to transmit a sync signal, but this is only an example. That is, communication may be performed not only through a Bluetooth method but also through a communication method such as an infrared ray communication, Zigbee, and etc. In addition, communication may be performed according to various wireless communication methods which allow the transmitting/receiving of signals, by forming a nearby communication channel.
As such, the display apparatus 100 may transmit a sync signal which corresponds to contents to the glasses apparatus of which pairing is completed in the form of a transmission packet according to a Bluetooth communication protocol. Once a transmission packet is received, the glasses apparatus 200 may open or close glasses based on time information included in the transmission packet. Accordingly, a user wearing the glasses apparatus 200 may watch only one content from among a plurality of contents.
The controller 140 may control the sync signal processor 170 to transmit one of sync signals which corresponds to each of a plurality of contents to the glasses apparatus 200 of which a connection operation is completed.
The sync signal transmitted to the glasses apparatus 200 may be set as a default. For example, suppose that an image frame of the first content and an image frame of the second content are alternately displayed. In this case, a sync signal which corresponds to the first content out of a sync signal corresponding to the first content and a sync signal which corresponds to the second content may be set to be transmitted to the glasses apparatus.
If a message for requesting transmission of another sync signal being received from the glasses apparatus 200, the controller 140 may control the sync signal processor 170 to transmit another sync signal.
As illustrated in
As illustrated in
According to
The first communicator 210 may transmit a connection request message to the display apparatus 100 in order to receive a sync signal which corresponds to one of a plurality of contents. That is, if a Bluetooth communication module is included, the first communicator 210 transmits an inquiry message to the display apparatus 100, and may perform a pairing operation after receiving a response message transmitted from the display apparatus 100.
If a display apparatus is connected to the first communicator 210 in accordance with a communication protocol which is defined with respect to the display apparatus 100, the communicator 210 may receive a sync signal from the display apparatus 100.
Specifically, if the display apparatus 100 is in a multi-view mode, the first communicator 210 receives a sync signal to synchronize a glasses apparatus at a time when image frames regarding one of a plurality of contents are displayed. Alternatively, if the display apparatus 100 is in a general mode, the first communicator 210 may receive a sync signal to synchronize a glasses apparatus at a time when left eye image frames and right eye image frames of 3D contents, are displayed.
The controller 230 controls overall operations of the glasses apparatus 200.
In particular, the controller 230 may control the audio output 280 to select one of a plurality of audio data obtained from the audio signal processor 270 based on a sync signal received through the first communicator 210. The output audio signal may be an audio signal related to contents which correspond to a sync signal received through the communicator 210.
Accordingly, the glasses apparatus 200 receives a plurality of different audio signals output from the display apparatus 100 and thus, may implement a dual-view audio function.
In addition, the controller 230 may control an operation of the shutter glasses driver 240 by transmitting a sync signal received from the first communicator 210 to the shutter glasses driver 240. Specifically, if a display apparatus is connected to the first communicator 210 and a sync signal being received, the controller 230 may control the shutter glasses driver 240 to control an opening timing of the first shutter glasses 250 and the second shutter glasses 260 in accordance with a display timing of one content based on the received sync signal.
The shutter glasses driver 240 opens the first shutter glasses 250 and the second shutter glasses 260. Specifically, the shutter glasses driver 240 generates a driving signal to drive the first shutter glasses 250 and the second shutter glasses 260 based on a sync signal received from the controller 230.
The first shutter glasses 250 and the second shutter glasses 260 open or close shutter glasses in accordance with a driving signal received from the shutter glasses driver 240.
Specifically, the first shutter glasses 250 and the second shutter glasses 260 simultaneously open shutter glasses when one of a plurality of contents is displayed, and open the shutter glasses all together when another content is displayed. Accordingly, a user wearing the glasses apparatus 200 may watch one content.
In the case of 3D contents, the first shutter glasses 250 and the second shutter glasses 260 may alternately open/close each of the glasses. That is, the first shutter glasses 250 may be opened at a time when a left eye image constituting one 3D content is displayed and the second shutter glasses 260 may be opened at a time when a right eye image is displayed in accordance with a driving signal.
The second communicator 220 receives an audio signal which corresponds to a content view which is synchronized with a glasses apparatus from among a plurality of audio signals output from a display apparatus. Herein, the second communication 220 may be configured to include an RF communication module.
As described above, in order to perform a multi-view function, the display apparatus 100 may detect audio data of each content and output the detected data through a different wireless frequency channels. The second communication unit 220 selects a wireless frequency channel and receives an audio signal using wireless frequency channel information which corresponds to a content view selected by the controller 240. The wireless frequency channel information may be included in a target content view information or a sync signal transmitted from the display apparatus 100 and then transmitted, or may be transmitted to the glasses apparatus 200 in a separate signal format.
The audio data processor 270 processes an audio signal received from the second communication unit 220 to detect audio data. Specifically, the audio data processor 270 may perform processing such as demodulation, noise filtering, amplification, and so on.
In particular, the audio data processor 270 may obtain a plurality of audio signals by decrypting a stereo audio signal received through the second communication 220. Herein, a plurality of audio signals may be different mono audio signals.
In addition, the audio signal processor 270 may provide an audio signal selected by the controller 230 from among a plurality of audio signals to the audio output 280. For example, the audio data processor 270 may output a selected mono audio signal to a speaker or an earphone through an audio codec in the form of L/L or R/R.
The audio output 280 may be implemented as a speaker or an earphone as described above. The audio output 280 may output audio data at a predetermined volume level. The volume may be adjusted using variable resistance formed on an output end. That is, if a volume adjustment key on the user interface 290 being adjusted, the audio output 280 may change a volume level of an audio signal by changing a variable resistance value according to the user manipulation.
The user interface 290 receives a user command to perform a connection operation with respect to the display apparatus 100. To do so, the user interface unit 290 may be implemented as a touch sensor or as a manipulation button. If a user touches a touch sensor or a manipulation button, the controller 230 may control the first communicator 210 to transmit a connection request message to a display apparatus. Specifically, if the first communicator 210 is implemented as a communication module, a connection request message may be an inquiry message to search a display apparatus within a scope where Bluetooth® communication is available.
The user interface 290 may receive various user commands. For example, the user interface 290 may receive a user command to request transmission of another sync signal when a connection operation with respect to the display apparatus 100 is completed.
In the above exemplary embodiment, the display apparatus 100 generates a sync signal which corresponds to a display timing of each content and transmits the generated sync signal to the glasses apparatus 200, but this is only an example and is not meant to be limiting. The display apparatus 100 may generate a sync signal which corresponds to a display timing of each content as a single transmission packet according to Bluetooth® communication standard and transmit the generated sync signal to a glasses apparatus.
